Winter is nearly on us and there seems to be a lot of us People on this group who are very keen pickers, well does anyone fancy the idea of having an informal pick come workshop come get together around my front room one winter Saturday? I got room for about 6, we could chew the cud banjo wise and drink tea, have a sandwitch and help each other, Ability does'nt come into it but i guess beginners and intermediate pickers would be the players to have. What do ya think? I am in Corby, Northants, good link roads to the M1 and M11 via the A14.

	Nolicks says: 9/30/2012 7:39:43 PM Joe, please PUT ME DOWN. Has I would really love to come and learn from a great guy like yourself.
	Jane C says: 10/1/2012 9:49:23 AM Better get started on that extension Joe :-)
	joemac says: 10/2/2012 12:29:15 AM OK Guys, it a runner, just give me time to sort things out, a week or two and i will be in touch on here with more info, bear in mind, this is NOT a workshop for those who are brand new, its more a get together for everyone to share licks, tunes and idea's and generally get to meet each other and play a spell. Niether is it for experts, its more a "how do you play that?" type session for us guys who are breaking out into sessions and their first little band thing. I think it will be a great day, Begginers are more than welcome to come along and join in all they can, perhaps look and learn and also meet others. How does all this sound?
